A Voice From the Parsonage.

BRowNwooD, GA, Dec. Z, 1886.
The Swift Specific Co, Atlanta, Ga.
GENTLEMEN: This past summer
my wife was away on two
months visit. On her return home
she had a wretched cold, which,
growing worse, caused me to call in
physician. He attended her sever
al weeks without beneftting her.
She, knowing the splendid effect s.
S. S. had on me, determined TO test
il In her case. AT that time she had
copious aud disagreeable discharges
from the left nostril. Before the first
bottle Of s. S. S. was used up she was
much better, and few additional
bottles set her all right.
II Is remarkable that S. S. S. is
good for colds and sore ihroafs. A
few months ago, l was troubled oc-
casionally with my throat from
preaching. / carried bottle of
Swift's Specific with me on the cir
cult. Whenever my throat became
irritated and annoyed me / would
take dose Of S. S. S. just before re-
tiring, and on awakening / would be
well. Rev. JOSEPH G. LASGsToE.

Polk JOhnsOn's Jest.



Polk had gone south in quest of
rest, recuperation, and information
for the Courier-Journal regarding
the much advertised"S "SouthernBoom /"
He succeeded in reaching Birming-
ham, Alabama, and proposed stop
ping a few days TO search for Alad-
din's lamp, so that when he reached
a plat of ground that suited him he
could rub 1t and own a magic city of
own.
He was seated in the public room
Of tho Sandwich House, and, in the
absence OF the National Police Ca
zette, was filling his mind with the
valuable information stored in the
columns ofthat excellent half-demo-
cratic boss-and-half-republican alli-
gator journal, the Atlanta Constitu-
ton. .s .s f9 9s
Three young men sauntered into the

seemed TO be hilariously inclined. One
of them remarked to his companions :

ed, In chorus. l98 lt

rink. Got the hall engaged"
"Where is itG' asked one of the

brought the palm of his right hand
down on Folks shining Uranium with
resounding smack.
The urbano Kentucky Journalist,
who up TO that moment was oblivious
Of the arrival of the HILARIOUS trio, de-
Iliberately folded the paper, laid 1t
upon the table, quietly rose to his
feet and without saying a word,
raised his chair and the next moment
the young man who was going to
start skating rink was hurled
through space to the end of the room,
where his aerial flight was ended by
contract with the wall. His compan-
ions ran and lifted him from the
floor.
Polk calmly sat down and resumed
the reading Of his paper.
Presently the stricken young man
revived sufficiently to comprehend
that something unusual had happen

description that he Is the owner OF
